advent of the new year comes an end to the holiday season and for the students of GpHS there begins a period of preparing for mid term examinations The January exams of recent years have been held on special days segregated from routine school activities This year however the exams will be held for part of a day and regular classes run for the remainder of the day The change In schedule is due to the Board of Education new view of the school year Ac cording to the rules schools not operating on a system such as GDHS must either hold exams along with regular classes or the school year must be extended for a number of days In June to compensate for the time lost in giving the exams Not wishing to do the latter the administration has chosen the former alternative Next year system will very likely be different again from those systems of the past Beginning In September GDHS will be on a schedule The entire school system will be altered and staff and students alike will be starting afresh
